New England Patriots director of pro personnel Nick Caserio said the team's interest in the quarterback position is really no different than any other year as the team prepares for the NFL draft. "This year is really no different," Caserio said. "I think what we try to do is take each position and really try to know top to bottom as thoroughly as we can, as many players at that position."

New England Patriots director of pro personnel Nick Caserio was offered the general manager position by the Miami Dolphins Saturday, Jan. 25, but he has decided to stay put, spurning the Dolphins. According to several members of the Patriots organization, no one expected Caserio to leave and that's exactly what happened.
